Would prefer to sell as a system, but will part out if no one wants to buy it. $200 shipped OBO Antec ISK 110 Mini-ITX case with PSU (8.6 x 8.7 x 3.1 inches) Celeron G1820, 2.7 GHz (Haswell, dual core, 1150) 8 GB DDR 1600 RAM (Adata XPG) ASRock B85M-ITX motherboard (USB 3.0 ports and...

I'm migrating my data from WHS 2011 to FreeNAS. Everything is going smoothly, but I'm at a loss regarding client PC backups. I'd ideally like to do backups of client PCs (only 2, maybe 3) to the FreeNAS box the way WHS did. It allowed bare metal restores, and backups ran as a daily task with...

Is there such thing as a motherboard that supports ECC RAM as well as a Celeron G1850 (Haswell)? I see a number of server motherboards with C222 chipsets that support ECC, but they only seem to list the Xeon processors as supported. Intel's website says that the G1850 supports ECC RAM...

I'm converting my WHS server to FreeNAS and want to move my 4xWD Red drives from an external eSATA RAID 5 enclosure to internal drives for ZFS. The NAS lives in a smallish cabinet (with good airflow) so I'm looking for a small case that can accommodate it. Mini-ITX mobo, booting from USB...

My MSI H77MA-G43 seems to have died. It needs to be microATX, have USB 3.0 ports and a header, and accept a PS/2 keyboard. Not very concerned with anything else.

I have three monitors so can't put my speakers on the sides of the display. Instead, I have a shelf the same height as the monitors that I put the speakers on. Are there any computer speakers, without an auto-off feature, that can be angled downward easily? I guess I could come up with some...

I have a pair of Audyssey speakers which I really love. The problem is that they have an auto-off, but not an auto-on, function. So they turn off after 15 minutes of inactivity. I have them plugged in via analog cable. Does there exist a program that can keep them on by playing/sending an...

2TB Seagate Barracuda LP ST32000542AS 3.5" 5900 RPM 32MB Cache SATA 3 Gbps $35 shipped SOLD

I am having a constellation of bizarre and intermittent problems with my internet connection that I cannot figure out for the life of me. First, some hardware issues: I've swapped my modem (SB6121) for a different make and model (Zoom 5341J). Signal levels are excellent (3 dBmV downstream; SNR...

I'm currently using WHS 2011 and am thinking of migrating to FreeNAS. First question: Client backups. WHS does automatic, nightly full-computer client backups with retention schedules. It's very handy. How can I replicate this using FreeNAS? Second question: RAID and ZFS Right now I have...

My brother is looking for a pretty basic new desktop. I want him to get something with an SSD. Needs are modest.. a regular Pentium with 8GB of RAM should be plenty. Any suggestions on a good deal?

Looking for an SPDIF header/bracket with coax output I can hook up to my mobo or sound card, or a sound card that has coax digital output. Looking for something cheap. Thanks.

I am getting a Thinkpad Yoga with a 500 GB hard drive from my school, and want to replace the HDD with a 256 GB SSD that I already have. I can't do a fresh install of Windows because there's a lot of specialized apps that I don't have access to install. What's the best software to clone the...

I'm currently using Windows Home Server 2011 to keep four client PCs backed up. It works for my purposes but I'm wondering what I should be moving to in the future once that's gone. The thing I like about WHS is that the client that runs on the PCs keeps me informed of missed backups and gives...

I have an HP Touchpad with 16GB of memory. It's set up to boot to either WebOS or Cyanogenmod. I'm including a brand new, never opened, official HP custom folio case. The case is very slick, thin polymer that provides full protection and two different standing angles. Also includes the charger...

I've been looking around for a while and can't find any eSATA cables that have a latch or lock similar to what's now common on SATA cables. Does such a thing exist? Do most devices with eSATA ports support them? Where can I find one?

I'm looking for a 4-bay RAID 5 controller with eSATA to use with WHS 2011. Right now I've got 4 2TB drives on a Dell Perc/5i controller and I really want to move the server to an ITX system with an external enclosure to save space and possibly power. I'm using 3x2TB Hitachi HDS5C3020ALA632...

I just upgraded my aging Linksys router to an EdgeRouter Lite and am super happy with the performance. Right now, I'm using my router in AP mode for wireless. I'd like to replace it with a dedicated dual-band AP. I'd rather not spend $100+ if I didn't have to. I'm not sure what's out there...

I'm having trouble finding software to make copies of DVD movies. Right now I'm using DVDShrink to rip to ISO, but I'd like a one-step process that can copy directly to another disk. Suggestions?

This should be cheap cheap cheap. It's for a church computer and will be running Ubuntu with LXDE, so linux compatibility is required. The Sempron 2800+ we have with 512 MB of RAM just isn't cutting it. This will hopefully also have integrated graphics.

We have a user who has vision impairment. Right now he's using basically a 27" LCD TV with ZoomText to do his work. His vision is degrading a bit and he wants something bigger. I'm shopping for a ~46" display. There are obviously lots of those out there. We need something that has a thin...

I'm selling a pair of G7 mice. One is the carbon fiber look and the other is the gray style. The gray style has smooth plastic sides while the carbon fiber one has rubberized, textured sides. Each mouse comes with two batteries, the base station/charger, and dongle. Both work well. The...

I have an M510 and want to customize the left/right functions of the scroll wheel to be keyboard buttons, but SetPoint drives me nuts with the way it takes over movement and scroll wheel even if you click OS Implementation. Is there any good, unobtrusive software that would allow me to do this?

Looking for an SSD, at least 120 GB. Preferably more. Speed makes no difference at all. I have a 90 GB Vertex 4 in the PC - this is to replace a noisy 160 GB HDD. Would like to spend $60-$70 depending on drive and size. Might pay a little more for more storage space. Thanks.

Looking for a sound card with an SPDIF output that'll work in Win7 x64. Looking to spend maybe $15.

I've been using an MX510 for many years. I love it. It's perfect - except for the wire. Here's what I'm looking for in a mouse: 1) At least one side button I can use for "back" in a browser. 2) A wheel that clicks, as opposed to the smooth-scroll wheels. 3) A wheel that is easy to push as a...

$180 AR for a new graphics card is pushing my budget already, but it does come with Assassin's Creed 3. So that's cool. Is there anything else in the price range I'd want to consider? The 7870 is an upgrade, but a minor one for a good chunk of extra money and doesn't come with AC3. I'll be...

I have a big list of PCs on the local network I want to ping to see if they're on. I was going to use the ping command and sort based on errorlevel, but ping outputs 0 whether it receives a response or not. It only errors if the host is not found. Any ideas on how to do this?

I currently have a Linksys E2000. I'll be giving it to a friend who is moving to a new apartment. I want to replace it with something else. I like the idea of DD-WRT and would like something that is well-supported. The Buffalo routers like the WHR-HP-G300n looks like a nice unit but there are...

FS: an EVGA 512MB 8800GT. Stock cooler. Single-slot card. Works great. $35 shipped I've got the original box with a molex-PCIE power adapter, component breakout cable, and a DVI-VGA adapter with it if you want any of that.

If you had $5k to build a folding box, what would you put in it?

I have a 500 GB OS drive in WHS 2011 that has an empty 400 GB partition. The data is on a RAID 5 array. I have a 2 TB drive I use for offsite backups - once every week or two I'll bring it home to back up the server and the important data then put it back in the cabinet at my office. This...

I'm running WHS 2011 with a Dell Perc 5/i card. Is there some software package I can use to monitor and/or manage the RAID array? I'd like to get alerts if a drive goes down, view rebuild activity, etc.

I want to use a Dell Perc 5/i in a WHS 2011 build. Will be using three 2TB drives initially in a RAID 5. I do have an offsite backup strategy in place. Questions: 1) Using this combo, can I expand the RAID without having to reformat the array? 2) Do I need the battery for anything? 3) Is a...
